Last month, I flew down to Dallas with Jared’s two sisters, Jordan of Oh Happy Day and Gabby of Design Mom, to shoot a really fun video with Wolf Cooking Appliances. They have a great campaign around reclaiming the kitchen, making time for cooking and the importance of family dinners. In the video we talk a lot about our own family traditions, some thoughts on how family meals happen in our homes, and our go-to recipes. We’re also cooking together and discussing some Stanley family recipes we love like burnt butter pasta, steamed artichokes, and figasa bread from their Grandma Daisy.
Figasa is essentially foccacia bread, but his grandmother came from a part of Italy up in the mountains that called it figasa. Instead of olive trees, they raised cattle, so instead of olive oil the figasa has butter. Lots of butter. Which is never a bad switch in my opinion. It’s a really easy recipe that’s great with fresh pasta and makes for delicious leftover sandwich bread.
